(Pre-apology. I am not trolling, please don't get my comment below more than what I intended: another perspective to look at the strong reaction Cuban's comments incited.)
Reading through the comments, I see that Cuban's statement upset and even angered several HN commenters. That is a strong emotional reaction.
I am not saying it is the 5 stages of grief, but the first 3 fits: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance.
Also from Howard Aiken: Don't worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any good, you'll have to ram them down people's throats.
- return0 10y agoI 'm not even sure why it provokes such reaction. Neural networks have existed for 4 decades ; without the deep- part, but we know their potential power and we still have not been replaced. Granted, this time it's different. I think what worries most of us is that neural nets need lots of data and we don't have access to it. Still, they are easy to learn and we should be learning about them (note to self).
